Final Major Project 'Yumenosekai'
My
final piece is ‘Yumenosekai’(‘Dream World’), which
features Japanese Kawaii style. My final piece pays tribute to children’s
imagination, which inspired me to design 3 posters and 9 sewn felt toys. The
posters show three herbivore animals; giraffe, zebra and lama. The collection
has been stimulated by my recent visit to a toyshop in Amsterdam and can function
as a potential product design/branding approach for children’s merchandise.
I felt that I was successful in
using colourful felt because I could make toys that matched the drawings, and
they look and feel soft. Also, the felt is very safe for children, their parents do not need to worry about the children
harming themselves with the toy. I made them to be toys, but also I wanted the
children to use them after they have played with them, so I added the wool hook
to the toys.
I still need to learn a lot of things in terms of Indesign and Photoshop but thorough the final major project I could learn and develop a basis for me to improve my knowledge upon, for me, it was a very big advancement and growth.

Trace Project ''My Cells''
1.Why do I want to do this?
I always draw my cells, so I thought this is an example of the world trace.
That's why I decided to make ''my cells''.
2.What is ''My Cells''?
These are a part of my body, for example they are within my brain.
It can change everyday, anytime.
It can change everyday, anytime.
I drew the inside of my brain to express these moments and to record them.
I think recording something is very important because otherwise if you don't do it,
it is going to disappear and never come up again.

3.How to make it?
I drew my cells on two transparent sheets and used a projector.
I could feel a layer of shadow.
film - ''every moment''
put on the colour
because I think colour also can show my feelings so it is going to important.
I made the video and uploaded it on youtube.
the final one is about my life in Farnham.
thank you xxx

TRACE 12.OCT.Mon and 13.OCT.Tue
12.OCT.Monday
We discussed about artwork in relation to
the concept of TRACE.
The begging I did not know that what is
trace.
During the lecture we discussed artwork of
some artist.
The one of my favourite was ‘Breath’ by
Gabriel Orazco.
When I saw this first time I thought it is
something steam of plate, but actually it was someone’s breath.
Then I could understand that this is also
trace. Actually I have seen this kind of trace in my sister’s room because she
always was sleeping on the top of the piano when she was tired. That is why for
me, it is the artwork, which is very close on my life.
In addition, we watched artworks ‘Something
Making Something Leeds to Nothing’ by Francis Alys, ‘Following Piece’ by Vito
Accouci, ‘Rock Drawing’ by Richard Long and ‘Rubbing’ by Ana Meudieta.
I thought every trace work relate to our
life like something the piano, ice, rock and snow. Those materials are familiar
to us.
More than being able to see in real arts, I
was able to deepen my understanding.
13.OCT.Tuesday
Drawing day!!! My hands became the drawing
machines. We drew around every each of paper, it was so much fun. I used my
kitchen object, which is a spoon and fork. After using drawing machines, I used
a white pencil for something trace. I drew a lot of mushrooms every part of
paper. Then everyone realized that I drew it! I think it is something my
symbol. After finished we took 10 pictures, it is also trace.
We made Drawing Machine2 to use toilet
papers and cardboards.
I think this idea that using it is mazing because usually people think that they are something worthless, but they’ve became beautiful drawing machine.
Trace of machine
It looks like strip of paper. We hung it
from a ceiling. I think this colour and the gap between from a ceiling express
our emotion and feeling.
Before doing this, I haven’t expected this
artwork is beautiful.
I could have knowledge of trace during two
days.
